Approaches Used Online and How They Help

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the person leads the conversation and explores their feelings at their own pace. This approach supports self-understanding and can be useful for issues like low self-esteem, life transitions, and relationship concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and gently challenge unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, then practice alternative ways of thinking and coping. CBT is commonly used to address anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness skills that can reduce reactivity to difficult thoughts and emotions and improve emotional regulation. It can be helpful for managing stress, sleep difficulties, and ongoing worry.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Janette will collaborate with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made. This collaborative process helps ensure therapy feels relevant and practical.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make therapy more flexible and accessible, allowing people to engage from home or other convenient locations. These options allow therapists and licensed professionals to maintain continuity of care, accommodate different schedules, and offer a range of communication styles to suit individual comfort and practical needs.
